What if he doesn't survive? He's worth a lot to me.

My homage to The Empire Strikes Back is done.
As with Lord Vader, Boba here is created with every bit of dialogue from The Empire Strikes Back, plus the opening scroll.

I thought this would be easier than the first since Boba's helmet is mostly large, solid shapes, but getting convincing curves out of blocks of text was frustrating. It's still a little sloppier than I'd like around where the dome of the helmet meets the visor.

Much more so than with my Star Wars project, I'm struck by how great the script is. Lots of smiles and fond memories as I went through this one. That Han Solo may be a scruffy-looking nerf herder, but he's charming too, eh?

It may be time for a movie marathon soon.

  1. Wow! That looks AMAZING! Are you doing the Death Star for the last one or the Emperor? Are there any iconic masks in the last movie? I can't remember.
